I know someone that is almost completely and utterly emotionally void when it comes to relationships. I want that same thing. He said he made himself that way, and that it allows him to think with a clear head because someone has to. I have goals in life and this love thing isnt working out for me. Its keeping me stagnant and wasting my time. I am getting older, so now I have to put everything in to being successful, and maybe after that go back to love. I missed the opportunity to find someone to join me on this ride. lol

You're human, all we have is love, don't become heartless. Learn, move on.

 

Why isn't love working out for you?

You're proposing one extreme to fix another. It won't work. You don't have to be completely detached, you just need to be less detached.

 

Treat "dating" like "making new friends". Stop applying so much pressure for every person to be "the one".

I was in such void.. I wish I could back to it again

 

For some time of my life, nothing really interested me other than tv shows and games...It made me peaceful!

 

Nothing could get to me, no one was interesting to me and I didn't get attached to anyone...

 

Now, everything is screwed up..... I can't get the void back again :(

Void was good, has worked for me ....

I have heard of anhedonia. It is a Greek word which means "feeling no joy". There are many on-line articles about it.
